Gdiaper rash?

I use cloth part time and DH uses G's part time. I've been battling a callous/rash on Morgan's waistline from when she wears her size M G's and leaks when she wears size L. On top of that, she's getting a mild rash on her lady parts and on her tush. It's mild. Really mild. But it's a rash nonetheless and I see a mild rash as a precursor to a bad rash.

Has anyone else had to deal with rashes with G's? How about the waistline velcro issue? What do you do for that?

Gdiapers have been falling more and more out of my favor lately.

We've never had a rash from them, but sometimes his waist will get irritated from the velcro, so I put them on a little looser like a PP said she does too and it seems to help.Are you using the gCloths or the liners?

Kira gets the waistline rash - but she seems to get the rash from all of her covers when she is growing out of them. We're also stuck in the middle of M and L on all our covers right now - I hate this in between time. I make sure to lotion up her waist twice a day and it seems to help a little.

We use gDiapers and disposable inserts when we're traveling and gDiapers with prefolds when a cloth diaper "newbie" is watching Kira :) After 4 days of disposable her tush gets a little red - kind of the "pre-rash", but I think it's also because when we've been out of town she doesn't get nearly the same amount of air drying time as at home.

Is there a reason your dh won't use re-usable cloth or inserts in the gDiapers? We have 4 g covers and when someone is watching Kira I just load them all up so they are ready to go with the prefolds and there's nothing extra for them to worry about.

GL!

I'm not sure why he won't use cloth. He's said before he doesn't think we keep up with the laundry enough to use cloth full time, but I beg to differ-- Laundry is a touch of a sore subject with me right now. I keep up on laundry as best I can. I'd love a little extra help. Sometimes I don't put it away and let it sit in the basket until either I can't look at it anymore or he gives in and does it. I figure if I go to the trouble to wash it and hang it on the line, he could put it away...

Oops. Rambling...I finally got him to use an econobum cover and flat (which I had already folded) the other day, but only because I had all the gdiaper covers in the wash.

At least he'll use the g's and doesn't insist on traditional sposies.
